My name is Carissa Christian. I've been painting art on people since July 2008.  I recently started my own business after working with another Louisville area face painting company as an associate face painter for one year.   Even though I only recently started painting people, I've been "artsy" my entire life.  My favorite toy as a child was always a new box of crayons and markers!  Face painting has given me the opportunity to express my art on people and make children smile!

Face and body painting is great for any event you want to make special, from welcoming new babies and celebrating birthdays to large corporate picnics and promotions! 

No matter how small or large your event may be, Carissa Christian Face Painting always strives to do the best quality work while making you and your guests feel comfortable and special!  

Please check out the Gallery Pages and call to schedule your event soon!  Carissa Christian serves the entire Kentuckiana area and outlying areas, including Frankfort, Lexington, Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky, Elizabethtown and more!
